Appointments

We are currently enrolling new patients.

Consultations with both the doctors and nurses are usually made by appointment. It is a good idea to let the receptionist know how urgent the appointment is and what it is for. Some procedures may take a little longer. Please let the receptionist know when you have arrived for your appointment. They will check you off on the computer and this lets the doctor or nurse know you are here.

Waiting time

Due to unexpected emergencies, delays are sometimes inevitable. Reception will keep all waiting patients informed. We ask for your tolerance and understanding in these circumstances. Please remember to tell us you have arrived, otherwise you may be missed.
